When we asked about the schools in India, they said...

"Very few western kids at the school (can count on one hand), Best of the options available in the city. School curriculum is fine but heaily based on Indian culture.I am happy with it for a short time (couple of years)," said one parent with children at Global Public School in Kochi.

"The Indian school education system is highly varied, with a wide range of options available to students. One of the top international schools in India is American International School Chennai (AISC). This school is highly regarded for its quality education, with its curriculum integrated with the American Common Core learning standards. Additionally, the school offers a robust extracurricular program and provides opportunities for students to learn outside of academics. The Indus International School, Bangalore is another top school in India. This school offers a comprehensive curriculum including mathematics, science, social studies, arts, athletics and more. The school also offers a bilingual program for students, allowing them to be exposed to different cultures and gain experience in both English and the local language. For a more comprehensive bilingual education, The Chirec International School in Hyderabad offers education in both the English and the Telugu language. The school focuses on high-quality academics, with an emphasis on preparing students to enter colleges in India or other countries. They have an active parent-teacher association and a wide range of extracurricular activities. Finally, the International School Bangalore is one of the best international schools in India.
